Chapter 14 Lingxiao Corporation
- Huang Lamei was beside herself with anger!
- “How dare you lay your hands on my grandson, do you think that this is your territory?”
- Huang Lamei erupted, the gaze she directed at Li Hang gleaming with viciousness.
- Cui Tianci was also busy adding oil to the fire by the side. “Grandma, this isn’t the first time this bastard hit me. The previous time, he was even more vicious!”
- “Grandma, I’m your precious grandson, so isn’t the bastard hitting me akin to giving you a slap as well?”
- Huang Lamei clapped her hands together, hollering furiously, “Men! Break the legs of this worthless bastard and dump him inside a rubbish chute!”
- “Stop!”
- At that moment, Liu Yufen and Xu Xiaoyang cried out simultaneously.
- Liu Yufen pushed Xu Xiaoyang to the forefront, directly in front of Huang Lamei.
- “Madam Huang, it was you who invited us to the banquet tonight.”
- “We have no wish to cause any trouble here.”
- “But your grandson had been targeting and humiliating us from the very beginning.”
- “He conjured up all sorts of slander and rumors, clearly wanting to slander my daughter.”
- The moment Xu Xiaoyang said this, Cui Tianci immediately protested loudly.
- “Anyone with a working pair of eyes would be able to tell at a glance that there’s something wrong with your family.”
- “This plan must have been your daughter’s...”
- Before Cui Tianci could finish his sentence, he noticed Li Hang raising his hand.
- His face going pale with fright, and he immediately hid behind Huang Lamei.
- “Grandma, he’s going to hit me again!”
- Huang Lamei’s hawkish gaze shone with a ferocious gleam.
- Glaring pointedly at Li Hang, she snarled, “If you have the gall, I dare you to hit my grandson again!”
- The corner of Li Hang’s lips curled up slightly and in the next instant, his entire body seemed to have blurred.
- Before anyone could react,
- Li Hang seemed to have teleported behind Huang Lamei’s back.
- SLAP!!
- A resounding slap reverberated across the air. Cui Tianci’s face swelled up considerably and an extremely prominent handprint was plastered on his face.
- Following that, Li Hang’s bland, yet incredibly distinct voice floated into the ears of everyone present.
- “Madam Huang permitted me to give you this slap.”
- “YOU! YOU BASTARD!!”
- “MEN! SOMEONE! GET OVER HERE!”
- Immediately, ten burly bodyguards swarmed into the compound, wearing menacing expressions on their faces.
- Huang Lamei gesticulated wildly at Li Hang, bellowing with irascible rage.
- “I WANT YOU TO BREAK ALL HIS LIMBS!!”
- The group of bodyguards immediately moved on her command, surging forward to encircle Li Hang.
- Bang!
- BAM!
- POW!
- However, in the blink of an eye, the ten-odd bodyguards were sprawled out on the ground,
- letting out pained groans and agonized whimpers!
- Huang Lamei jumped with shock. The old woman hurriedly clutched onto Cui Tianci frightfully as she shielded in front of him.
- “What... what do you want?”
- Coincidentally, Cui Haifeng had also brought along the chairmen of the dozen companies present and was hurrying over in a fluster.
- All of them were wearing a grim expression, shooting death glares at Xu Xiaoyang.
- Cui Haifeng pointed towards Xu Xiaoyang and shouted, “Xu Xiaoyang, the ones attending the banquet tonight consist of at least half of the total number of chairmen in the Ning Province.”
- “With your tiny company, don’t tell me you are actually dreaming of pitting yourself against half of the Ning province?”
- Before he even came here, Xu Xiaoyang had actually repeatedly reminded himself to keep a low profile.
- However, at this time, for some strange reason, with Li Hang on his side, Xu Xiaoyang felt like a tiger that had been given wings, brimming with surging dominance.
- Xu Xiaoyang raised his head, proudly jutting his chin high.
- “Cui Haifeng, ever since my father’s generation, your family had always been oppressing us.”
- “All these years, it’s not that I want to pit myself against you, but you guys had left me with no other options.”
- Cui Haifeng gave a cold sneer.
- “Tonight, my inviting you to the banquet was already bestowing you more respect than you deserved.”
- “Initially, I harbored the hope of offering you an olive branch for peaceful co-existence.”
- “As long as you were willing to give up 51% of your company’s shares, in the future, your family would not have to worry about anything else.”
- Xu Xiaoyang suddenly guffawed loudly, “HAHAHAHA!”
- The normally amiable Xu Xiaoyang, who had always maintained a pleasant disposition, seemed to have suddenly erupted with domineering arrogance!
- “Cui Haifeng, do I look like a f*cking fool to you?”
- “If I was stupid enough to sell that amount of shares to you, you bastards would rob away everything from me within two days.”
- “Weren’t you bastards eyeing the pier construction project under my company?”
- “You can screw off with your delusions!”
- “This Daddy would rather throw the project into the sea to feed the fishes than to hand it over into a bunch of scoundrels like you!”
- Xu Xiaoyang bellowed furiously, his chest heaving up and down from his emotional outburst.
- DUN!
- Every word he spoke left the ears of those listening ringing, as though someone had struck a loud gong right beside their ears.
- At this moment, in front of the countless eyes watching him, Xu Xiaoyang proclaimed to Li Hang,
- “Good son-in-law, I accept your suggestion!”
- Xu Xiaoyang planted his palms against the armrests of his wheelchair, gripping on tightly to them. As he slowly, and strugglingly raised himself up from the wheelchair.
- It was as though he was declaring his will to stand back up on his two feet again.
- His eyes gleamed ever so fiercely as he gazed out at the surrounding crowd, studying these tycoons who represented the so-called “half of the Ning province”.
- “I want to announce some news for everyone present.”
- “From today onwards, Jiaoyang Corporation will henceforth be renamed as the Lingxiao Corporation!”
- “You guys want a war? I’ll give you a war!”
- “I, Xu Xiaoyang! My son-in-law, daughter and I would be holding a celebration in our company!”
- How domineering!
- How bold!
- Seeing as Xu Xiaoyang and his family was about to turn to leave, Huang Lamei came to her senses and pointed towards Xu Xiaoyang, screeching, “Stop them! STOP THEM!”
- Li Hang’s body froze slightly.
- He turned his head, directing a chilly and piercing glare at Huang Lamei.
- Badum!
- Huang Lamei abruptly collapsed onto the ground, shakily expelling a cold breath of air and instantly clawed tightly at her heart.
- “Mother, are you okay!?”
- “Grandma! Grandma!”
- Huang Lamei’s breathing grew more and more ragged, and her entire body was trembling violently.
- Suddenly, she arched her neck and following that, as though a bolt of lightning had struck her,
- her body stiffened up like rock!
- Under the astonished gaze of everyone else, she rolled her eyes back.
- “Hurry! Call an ambulance!”
- At that point of time, Li Hang and his family had already gotten inside the car.
- Xu Haoran immediately raised a thumbs up towards Xu Xiaoyang.
- “Dad, you are simply too freaking awesome today!”
- “Just now, all those supposed ‘chairmen’ were all rendered speechless at your awesome speech and couldn’t even say anything!”
- Xu Muqing and Liu Yufen were similarly brimming with smiles as they stared at Xu Xiaoyang.
- Ever since Li Hang appeared in their house, Xu Xiaoyang’s mood had taken a turn for the better.
- Even his demeanor when speaking had become noticeably more energetic than the past.
- However, Xu Xiaoyang could only let out a long sigh as he stared wistfully at his legs
- “If only I am still able to walk.”
- Li Hang, who had been focused on driving the entire time, suddenly spoke.
- “Tomorrow, I’ll bring Pa for a CT scan. Once I gain a clear understanding of the situation within his body, I’ll arrange for a round of surgery.”
- “I estimate that after half a month, Dad would be able to move about freely again.”
- “After half a year of recuperation, there should be no problem even if he wants to go to a football stadium to play soccer.”
- ……
- Silence.
- Within the interior of the car, absolute silence reigned.
- The silence was such that even if a pin were to drop inside the car now, the sound would be distinct.
- A good while later, Xu Muqing’s luminous eyes fluttered and sent a questioning gaze towards Li Hang.
- “Your words just now...is it a joke?”
- The corners of Li Hang’s lips curled up slightly, “The one that lies to you is a bitch.”
- Immediately, the entire car erupted with Xu Haoran’s jubilant shouting, Liu Yufen’s stern berating,
- as well as Xu Xiaoyang’s foolish giggle.
- Xu Muqing, however, was staring intently at Li Hang.
- Her gaze was filled with endearing warmth, but also laced with a thick fog of suspicion.
- This man, why is he being so good to me?
